Velicity Made (on) Course. Considering polars are recorded for speed (and direction) through water (BS), relative to wind (AWA) and windspeed over deck (AWS). Speculating that recording is done for 10 - 30 minute intervals this race course is a square at near 45° from TWA, where each leg should take ca 10 - 30 minutes. + 45, -45 , +135, -135 TWA is pretty close to the courses sailed for maximum VMG in boats that are close to or faster than the wind. Sail from mark to mark while trimming your sails to keep boat speed at the maximum you can achieve. (Seawater in veins mode) Course is located in eastern Pacific for Europe Middel East and Africa to train comfortably in their evening hours duiring winter yet finding daylight at the race course.
